Registering Interest for AmigaOne X1000

30 PowerMacs? As currency goes, it's a little bit cumbersome! :-)

Thanks, I enjoyed that. Funniest thing in the entire thread, and anyone who read the entire thread will appreciate the competition for laughs contained within

It's a scary day when *IM* marvelling at the stupidity and immaturity on display

Firstly, I have no interest in NG "amiga" options anymore. If I want a machine to deal with the modern world, I'll use a modern machine, simple as that (and I'll get it for cheaper than either OS4 or MOS' cost of entry). Now I say this so people are under no illusions as to my agenda. This said:

This is an amiga website. There's few outside eyes watching. People know what theyre buying into, they know the stories, they know prices/pros/cons.

Do all the clowns that keep posting the same **** over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over (yes, its excessive to type the same thing so often, but some people think this is normal) is enlightening anyone? Do they think theyre providing any revalations? Are they really so stupid as to think people dont see right through any feeble attempts to cover thier real agenda? People who are interested in something arent going to be swayed by people so transparent they irritate even those with no interest. Want to promote your system of choice? Great, but these negative tactics lose any value pretty quickly, to a point that any interest someone originally had in the product promoted by those using negative tactics also fades pretty quickly.

Personally I love my a1200 still. It cost me a pretty penny to upgrade it to a point its on par with a mac or pc Id have thown away 15 years ago, but guess what? I dont give a ****, it's my hobby and I enjoy it. No amount ot negativity from strangers who by now sound either like turrets sufferers stuck on a groove, or mentally challenged will change that.

This isnt to say I dont find some benchmarks interesting, I do, but there's only so many times a person can find a tenuous segue and repeat the same thing before they make people like me lose interest (someone who was previously interested in all amiga options until the community changed his mind with all the bull****(and make no mistake this isnt just one camp either)).

So no, youre not "informing people", youre doing damage and making the amiga scene appear as screwed up as it really is.

That makes way too much sense for this place

Am I missing something?
AROS doesn't support the latest 3D GPUs either.
An Nvidia 7600GT (like mine) or a 9600GSO? Sure.
Buy not much higher.
 
And compared to OS4, both MorphOSand AROS support adequate 3D support.

AROS works fine with up to gf5x0. My gtx570 worked in my AROS box when I had it (although more often as not performance wasnt as good as with the 9600gt that was the main card I used). Quality of 3d isnt soley dictated by cards supported either. The underlying subsystem plays a big part too.
